Judaism and Tantra

In Jewish tradition, a man without a woman is not complete = 'shalem' שָׁלֵם, it follows that alone, he can not achieve peace = 'shalom' שָׁלוֹם

The Kabbalah reminds us that in Hebrew, the words for man (ish)  and the word for woman (isha) are the same except for two letters Y and H, which spell the name of God: "When a man joins himself to a woman in holiness, God dwells among them"
Manאִישׁ  &  Woman - אִשָּׁה
God - י ה

"Hence a man (ish אִישׁ) leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife (ba’ishto בְּאִשְׁתּוֹ), so that they become one flesh."(Genesis 1. 23)
